MILTON n. MAHANAY AND JESSE-D. Bruce, on FREDERICK, OKLAHOMA; sen) riucr.

ASSIGNOR 0F 0NE-HALF OF HIS RIGHT OKLAHOMA.

To all whom it may concern:

' Be it known that we, MILTON D. MAHANAY and JESSE D. PRICE, citizen of the United States of America, residing at Frederick, in the county of Tillman and State of Oklahoma, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Oil-Burners, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawing.

This invention relates to burners for use in connection with crude oil, and the principal object of the same is to provide an oil burner that may .be placed within a cooking or heating stove without requiring any change in the construction or arrangement of the parts of the stove.

In carrying out the objects of the invention generally stated above it will be under-f stood, of course, that the essential features of the same are necessarily susceptible of changes in details and structural arrangements', certain preferred and practical embodiments of which are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein 1 Figure 1 is a perspective view of a cook'- ing' stove showing the improved burner therein. Fig. 2 is a central. vertical sectional view of the burner. Fig. 8 is a detail perspective view of the burner casing, Fig. 4 is; a fragmentary perspective view of a heating stove showing the same equi ped with aported on the grate 3, said pan. being provided with'a burner cup 5 which is arranged adjacentjone longitudinal side of said. an and'sup orted above the bottom thereof by a vertica standard 6. A casing 7 is loosely fitted over the burner cup withln the pan 4,

said casing having oneend closed, and theother end'partially closed by an upper endent flange 8, the open'lower portion 0 said partially closed end bein provided with oppositely disposedflaringliverging flanges 9 which direct the-products of combustlon from the interior of the, casing to thefire box of the casing to provi e an opening throng substan- ,tially rectangular burnerpan 4 is shown suporL-sunnna.

aplurality of small perforations l2 and an edge opening 13 which, when the lid is closed, cooper tes with a similar opening 14 in the edge 0 a perforated ortion 15 of the to T0 '1. F. MCKENZIE, 0F FREDERICK 2. The top 1O of the casing 7' has a lid 11, hinged thereto said lid being provided with which fuel is fed tothe burner cup 5. An

air supply pipe16 has its lower end fitted over the perforated portion of the 11d and the top of the casing 7 ,said pipe 16 having an angular upper end 17 which rojects through the upper portion of the rout of the stove. A fuel tank 18 is suitably supported by a wall or the like adjacent the stove 1, and carries a supply pipe 19 which projects into and through the angular end of the-pipe '16 and has a pendent inner end 20 arranged so that it will drop fuel through the opening formed by the meeting edges of the lid and the top of the cas1ng-7 to the burner cup 5. Said -fuel supply pipe is supported centrally within .the air p1 e by suitable hangers 21. j A controlling va ve 22 is carried by the pipe 19 to' regulate the suply of fuel.

ln'the' form of thE IIIVGIIlJOII shown in Figs. 4-5, the burner is shown in connection with a heating stove 23.. The burner pan has an enlarged rounded end 24 that is 'placedwithin the ash pit 25, of-th'e stove, the other end being. contracted, as-mdicated at 26 and projects outside said ash pit, The burner cu andcasing' are the same 1n th s forrnoft e invention as that described in It, will 'be seen'that in' both forms of the invention, the improved burner may be readily, applied to, or removed from an ordinary stove, withoutithe necessity of altering the stove.

, In operation, fuel fed to the burner cup 1 5 and ignited, which heats the casin 7 so that "subsequent fuel is vaporize and .burned within'thecasing, in a manner well understood. The necessary air supply is ob 1 tainedthrough the a'irsupply pipe, whlchv causes the products ofcombustionfrom the burner to be forced out between the flaring flanges of the casing and deflectedthereby and by the walls of the the fire box.

As will be understood, the casing 7 is loose within the pan and the air supply pipe is loosely supported on the casing, so that parts of the burner may be readily separated to facilitate cleaning and the like.

What We claim as our invention is:-

1. A device of the character described, comprising a burner pan, a burner cup therein, a casing for said cup having an upper opening registering with said cap and a flaring end opening for the escape of products of combustion, an air supply pipe havpanto all parts of ing one end surrounding the upper opening of saidcasing, a source of fuel supply, and a supply pipe extending therefrom and into said airsupply pi e. v

2. A device 0 the character described comprising'a pan, a burner cup therein, a casing inclosing said cuphaving a sectional top and an end opening for the escape of top of the casing, and a fuel supply pipe .prO ectin into said air supply pipe.

.3. A evice of,the character described comprisin aburner pan adapted to be placed Wit in a stove, a burner cup therein, a casing loosely mounted within said pan .and surrounding said cup, said casing hav- 1 ing an open end, diverging flanges carried by said open end, means for feeding air through the upper portion of said casing to sald cup, and means for feedingfuel to said a cup.

comprising a burner pan, a' burner cup sup- 4. A device of the character describedported therein, a casing surrounding said cup and having an open end, diverging flanges projecting outwardly from said open a casing loosely mounted in said pan having a perforated top portion one edge of which is provided with an air opening, a lid for said top provided with perforations and with an edge 0 ening complemental to the edge opening 0 the top portion, said casing also having an open end, an air sup Jly pipe having one end fitted over the perforations and openings of the top and lid, and a fuel supply pipe projecting into said air supply pipe.

6. In combination with a stove, a pan removably fitted therein, a burner cup in said pan, -a casing surrounding said cup and provided with a sectional top having air and fuel inlets, said casing also having a flaring end opening for the discharge of roducts of combustion, an air supply pipe aving one end loosely fitted over the air and fuel inlets, and a fuel supply pipe projecting into said air supply 1 eand adapted to drop fuel through said uel inlet to said burner cu ifn testimony whereof we hereunto'afiix our signatures in presence of two witnesses.
